Also doubles as a kill list for when they decide it’s time.

No, it’s more like how we used to refer to all professions as being different kinds of men. Mailmen, firemen, policemen, etc. because men were the only ones with those jobs. I’m sure it’s not intentionally gendered language, but it definitely is and we can change it if we want.

I’m not the one that started this cringe reddit-style correction thread, as far as I’m concerned all soldiers are the same, but I’m sure as fuck not going to let shit like “airman is already the gender neutral term” go unchallenged because it very obviously isn’t.

This is a comments section. None of this matters. This is exactly the time and place to talk about this. 🙄

She can also be an excellent sword fighter.

I don’t think I care what the US Air Force calls people. The meaning of words is socially constructed, just like gender, and our society constructs “-man” as a gendered suffix. Male-as-default should be fought wherever it arises, even when the official government policy says otherwise.

Maybe especially when the government says otherwise, and Bushnell being trans (the evidence is certainly compelling) just makes this more important.

The US Air Force doesn’t get to decide what is and isn’t gendered language.

lol no one is becoming a fascist because we ask them to say mail carrier instead of mailman 🙄

And you know what makes women feel alienated? Being called men. Do we matter?

Trump allies on Republican National Committee want to help pay his legal bills (www.cnbc.com)

A growing number of Republican National Committee members believe its campaign arm should help pay mounting legal bills for former President Donald Trump, a move that could strain the party’s ability to financially support other candidates in the 2024 election.

Remember when people said they liked Trump because being rich made him impossible to buy?

Bush became president after losing the popular vote and then started a war that killed over a million people.

What fucking democracy?

Nothing says “freedom” like a tool that costs tens of thousands to buy and thousands every year to maintain and use.

It isn’t just a culture problem, it’s a tragedy of the commons.

When you’re surrounded by giant vehicles, the only way to be feel safe and see the road is to have a giant vehicle.
